esbie11 Posted March 31, 2008 #2 Share Posted March 31, 2008 A cruise compass is an events bulletin that you get each night for the following day of the cruise. It lists all of the events, the time, and location that they are held on the ship. It lists things like belly-flop contests, napkin folding, the shows that are happening that night, art auctions, etc. It also lets you know the weather conditions, how fast the ship is traveling, next port of call. I don't know that you can really get any of them ahead of time, as they usually will put them in your room each night for the following day's activities.

cb at sea Posted March 31, 2008 #3 Share Posted March 31, 2008 There have been some Compasses posted on the RCI site--but you need to know that daily activities do vary---so while it will give you a "feel" for what's happening, it may not be totally accurate for YOUR cruise!

pennies Posted March 31, 2008 Author #4 Share Posted March 31, 2008 That makes sense to me now......thanks a mill!! Might try and get one in advance to just have an idea what the schedule will be like :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matj2000 Posted March 31, 2008 #5 Share Posted March 31, 2008 You should probably wait until your cruise for 2 reasons. They are made daily and change with the times so it won't be the same. And why spoil the suprise of the activities and events? I never understand why some(not you) need to see every "Compass, Caper, or menus" from a cruise before they go. Leave a little surprise for the trip. To much planning could be a bad thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
